Open Road - Horses & Hounds

From Hunt Valley to Hereford, Monkton to Towson

Ladew Gardens in spring
Helen Norman

Since Colonial times, fox hunters have swept across these rolling, grassy fields in a colorful pageant of horses,  hounds and “hill toppers,” who prefer to watch and ride at a slower pace.
 

 

  • Drive the Horses & Hounds Scenic Byway
  • Check out the exhibits explaining the history, wildlife, and natural environment at the Oregon Ridge Nature Center
  • Explore forests, wetlands, meadows, farm-inspired art installations and enjoy breathtakingly beautiful scenic vistas along the trail system at the Center for Maryland Agriculture and Farm Park
  • Taste the latest vintage at Basignani Winery or one of the other wineries along the Piedmont Wine Trail
  • Bike, hike or run the Torrey C. Brown Railroad Trail (Northern Central Rail Trail)
  • Take the Nature Walk to enjoy the sculpted shrubbery at Ladew Topiary Gardens
  • Indulge in a “crop to keg” brew while enjoying the view of the historic farm at Inverness Brewing
  • Experience living history, a grist mill and a covered bridge at Jerusalem Mill Village
  • Hike to the King & Queen Seats at Rocks State Park
